How Is Trapping-Type Spectrometry Different from Typical Beam-Type Mass Spectrometry

question 4

Multiple Choice

How is trapping-type spectrometry different from typical beam-type mass spectrometry?

• A) Trapping-type mass spectrometry uses a UV laser to ionize small amounts of matrix and analyte that are directed to the mass analyzer,while beam-types use chemical ionization only.
• B) Beam-type mass spectrometry is primarily for complex compound analysis,while trapping-type mass spectrometry is used for elemental analysis only.
• C) Trapping-type mass spectrometry uses an ion trap designed to collect ions in three dimensions instead of two dimensions as in a typical beam-type mass spectrometer.
• D) Trapping-type mass spectrometers are arranged sequentially in tandem with a gas chromatograph and a "collision cell" placed between the two instruments.
